[sandy081]

Are you using this feature in VS Code connected to a remote window?

[tomaxsas]

yes, wsl instance

[icaroharry]

@tomaxsas I was also facing the same issue on WSL.

I managed to create a profile based on the default one by exporting and importing it back again.

• > Profiles: Export profile
• Select the "Default"
• > Profiles: Import profile
• Select the exported file

[tomaxsas]

yes i did that way also

[Zenthae]

I'm getting the same issue, creating a new profile from Default when connected to a WSL2 instance is not working, i had to open vscode in Windows then create the profile

[daeh]

I'm getting this issues on MacOS. Export / import works. Once I try to specify which profile to duplicate or which configurations to copy, I loose the ability to select configurations. This is a new issue (I was able to duplicate profiles until a month or two ago)

[sandy081]

@daeh Issue you are seeing is different from what this issue is about. This is fixed and will be available in our next release. Until then please use the following workaround.

Sorry for breaking this experience.

[NeuSandeZ]

@daeh Glad you posted it cause I faced the same issue and thought something's up with my setup.

[NeuSandeZ]

@sandy081 When can we expect the release?

[daeh]

thanks for the pointer and the fix, @sandy081 !

[ductbuix]

That's what I'm facing right now @daeh

[daeh]

@ductbuix Just enable the preview profiles UI feature, like @sandy081 suggested https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/224788#issuecomment-2274305778
